Fatality due to improper view glass

In a chlor alkali electrolyser plant, an acrylic view glass in a manifold gave way and an electrician was exposed to chlorine and died. The acrylic view glass that failed was found to be single layered as against the specification of double layered. No one knew when the change was carried out. Which elements of PSM failed?
